We are used to thinking of ketchup as a simple accompaniment to chips, burgers or hotdogs. Its versatility is every chef’s greatest weapon. In the Ketchup Herb Chicken we show how good it is as a marinade when combined with garlic and herbs.

Method

1
In a large, flat dish, mix all the ingredients except the oil together with the chicken, and leave to marinade in a cool place for up to two hours. The ketchup wonderfully sweetens the meat and creates a sticky crispy coating.

2
Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan on a medium high heat, add the chicken and then cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally. By the end, the chicken should be moist and succulent in the centre, and delightfully crispy on the outside.
